A bi-pole cleaning handle device for universal use with conventional cleaning instruments is provided. The device has a first side pole and a second side pole pivoted by swivel connectors side supports, respectively. Extending from the side supports is a base generally shaped as a rectangular shell to hold a cleaner head, which may be selected from a sponge block, brush, scrub head, squeegee, cleaning pad and any other suitable cleaning material. The fist side pole has a handle at its top and the second side pole has a similar handle. Each handle is angled with respect to the axis of its pole and has a grip on one side. This angle is set for the converging function of the bi-pole handle of the present invention as well as ergonomics in holdings by the user. The cross section of the grip is semicircular. The side poles and the handles can be either manipulated by left and right hands independently or by both hands simultaneously with the handle in unity.
